A particle moves from a point (- 2 hati + 5 hatj)to (4 hatj + 3hatk) when a force of (4 hati + 3hatj) N is applied. How much work has been done by the force? |

Answer» 8J `VECF = (4 hati + 3 hatj) N, W = ?` Work done by force F in moving from `vec(r_1) ` to `vec(r_2)` `W = vecF . (vec(r_2) - vec(r_1)) = (4hati + 3hatj) . (4 hatj + 3hatk + 2 hati - 5 hatj)` `= (4 hati + 3 hatj) . (2 hati - hatj + 3 hatk) = 8 + (-3) = 5 J`. |
